Quotes

Under all the braggadocio is a boy with a big heart, and from the first sentence Lamar will have readers hooked.


- Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"This stands out for its unusual setting and smooth integration of friendship and family concerns. "


- Kirkus Reviews
"The powerful mix of sibling rivalry, revenge, and hard-won redemption strengthens the perennial appeal of the naïve-underdog-makes-good plot; readers will come for the laughs and stay for the laughs."


- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
"Crystal Allen has the rare ability to make you laugh out loud one minute and swell with tears the next. The tween book world has a new hero-Lamar Washington -as well as a brilliant new author who's bound to win a Bubba-sized trophy herself!"


- Neal Shusterman, author of THE SCHWA WAS HERE and BRUISER
